farismalaeb that's why I used this:

$dnsVnetLink = "az network private-dns link vnet create" `
    + " --resource-group $resourceGroupName" `
    + " --zone-name $dnsZoneName" `
    + " --name `"$vnetName-DnsLink`"" `
    + " --virtual-network $vnetId" `
    + " --registration-enabled `"false`""

As an input finally, but is there a way to make it up into single string? As far as I know there's no escape character inside of the string, since backtick ( ` ) doesn't work inside strings. I'm looking for the simplest way to pass it as a string or, if someone knows a better way, for a better solution to write a re-usable code instead of using DoUntil loop function.

You can use the Here-String

something like this

$dnsVnetLink =@"
az network private-dns link vnet create
--resource-group $resourceGroupName
--zone-name $dnsZoneName" `
--name `"$vnetName-DnsLink`"" `
--virtual-network $vnetId" `
--registration-enabled `"false`"

"@

It start with @ and double-quote and ends with double-quote and @
